I've not found it to be an issue on Linux - seems to be about as performant as Chrome for me. The only wrinkle was when I tried to watch Netflix the first time I had to click a button to let me watch DRM'd Netflix streams.

HW accelerated video do work in Chrome/Chromium on Linux, while does not in Firefox, thus visibly loading the CPU and CPU fan on laptop. There is a visible tearing while quickly scrolling in Firefox, while no such problem with Chrome.

  I'll have to try to reproduce this. I've never noticed it. Is it only with Netflix or when viewing any video?
